On Saturday, May 14th, the National Association of Letter Carriers, the United States Postal Service and the Rural Letter Carriers Association will host its annual national food drive in the United States.
In Albuquerque, the food collected through the Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive will benefit Roadrunner Food Bank and will help us provide meals to 70,000+ hungry individuals, children, and seniors throughout New Mexico. As part of this campaign, we will be encouraging community members to leave out a bag of non-perishable food at their mailboxes as donations to help feed New Mexico’s hungry. Letter carriers will pick up any food donations left at mailboxes.
Volunteers are needed at 11 different post office locations to receive food from the postal carriers and help sort food into different bins/barrels. The volunteer shift will be 2-3 hours long with different start times at each location. Roadrunner Food Bank staff will be working along with the volunteers at each post office and will provide guidance and training.
Because volunteers will be working in the loading dock area around moving vehicles, we have a minimum age of 12 years old.
